May Birthdays & Anniversaries

Each month I post a "roll call" of those who came before me ~ it is a listing of the birthdays and anniversaries of my Kocevar/Kochevar & Lidman ancestors who were born or married during the month.  I use a cutoff year of 1910 for privacy concerns.  As you can see Austria/Slovenia, Norway, Sweden, and the United States (Minnesota, North Dakota & Washington) are represented.

Note:  The number in brackets [ ] is the individual's RIN (record identification number) or the couple's MRIN (marriage record identification number) in my genealogy program.  If there is a word after an individusl's name, it is his/her farm/village as listed in the Bygdebok.

Come back and check out next month's roll call.
